Comment (by gk):

 While looking closer at this yesterday I made a first build to bisect this
 problem (assuming it is one of our patches that is the culprit here). It's
 been based on `7b0c76f7d2594ad8b016de4ae9748649c5e1836e` and is still
 showing the same issue.

 Arthur: I made a branch based essentially on 60.2.0esr (called `60.2.0esr-
 test` in my repo) which reordered the commits for mingw-w64, moving them
 right to the start. Dunno if you want to try that one for bisecting as it
 should make it easier for Windows (modulo the other patches you still need
 from the tor-browser-build repo).
